| Hello everyone! I'm from Dyer, IN but I'm no stranger to Illinois or the Chicago land area. I grew up over in Thornton, IL right next to the world's largest limestone quarry. I might live just over the border now, but I'm frequently in the IL area. I look forward to talking about our MOPAR cars with everyone! | |

| welcome from Naperville!!! glad you made it over. the Z forum or "NaZi forum" as we call it kinda pushed us away so we can't mention CAMM on there. the owner over there (Clay) liked to edit our posts and stuff and pissed off a few members. when they erased our section on that forum we just made our own site and they didn't like that. we don't moderate it much here so speak your mind and have a thick skin. we like to rip on each other like friends do. as long as you aren't a sox, packers, or raiders fan you'll fit right in.  ( insert bulls smiley we don't have here)

Thanks! No i haven't unfortunately! I bought some 12" Cherry Bomb glasspacks and went to a muffler shop in Griffith, IN. The guy said because of the offset of the resonators he would have to cut the pipe way far back and then bend in two new pipes so that the bombs were straight and exited the back properly. You can see the offset of my resonators below.   The red lines in this picture show where he wanted to cut to weld in new pipe. Unfortunately he didn't carry Stainless pipe in stock and a pole would have been $110. The life expectancy of the pipe he wanted to use was only 3 years... So i decided not to press forward and just went home. Ugh. It would have been around $165 for the labor, $110 for the stainless pipe, and the $60 I had invested in the glasspacks. I've visited half a dozen shops and everyone but this guy was insistent on selling me a full catback system. All I want is something a little more louder than stock without breaking the bank. No drone at all as I have family and little ones in the car often. | |

| Here's the picture of where he wanted to cut. I forgot to attach it to my previous post. Looks like I don't have editing capabilities yet.  | |

| Hey Welcome from a fellow NW Indiana Guy, East Chicago here.
Check out the Meet Up Section, there is one coming up on October 13th to Redamack's leaving from Bosak on 30.
Lets hope you aren't a Sox, Cubs, Bears or Hawks fan....
Nice jab there JT. | |

| Welcome from the NW Burbs!
I think it's safe to say we're all Hawks fans... except for Crystal and of course this ^ guy. | |

| Thanks everyone! Definitely a hawks fan here. I remember going to games when they sucked and $15 got you in the door and you could pick where you wanted to sit! Now I have to drop $100 a ticket and bring my own oxygen because the air is so thin up in those seats! | |
